Show Notes
It's the first Monday of the New Year and what better way to get things started than with an all new Aaron Torres Podcast! Aaron recaps the College Football Playoff and a wild weekend for Texas football. He then discusses an even wilder weekend in basketball, which included a surreal performance from Kentucky's Dontaie Allen and Arkansas reeling after an injury to one of its most important players. Here's a rundown:
College Football Playoff Recap + Texas Football's Wild Weekend: Aaron opens the show by recapping the story of the weekend: The College Football Playoff. He wonders why exactly we all doubted Ohio State so much and also asks, just how much should Dabo Swinney's comments and actions of the last week be blamed for Clemson's loss (3:30)? Then he transitions to Notre Dame-Alabama and explains why, no, Notre Dame isn't overrated and Brian Kelly just might be as good as it gets for the Irish (14:30). Finally he talks about Texas's wild weekend, and the decision to fire Tom Herman and bring in Steve Sarkisian to replace him (26:30).
Dontaie Allen's incredible night + Justin Smith's awful injury: After a short break, Aaron transitions to college hoops. He opens by giving credit to Shaka Smart, after another impressive win for Texas (41:30) before moving onto the surreal performance by Dontaie Allen on Saturday night (52:30). Aaron explains why the win was about much more than just one victory for Kentucky fans and why this really might be the start of a brand new season for the Wildcats. Finally, Aaron asks what happens next for Arkansas, which is 9-1, but coming off a loss, with a key injury to Justin Smith (1:03:00).
